You know those stories from EVE you hear repeated every now and then for years? This is definitely one of those stories I think. A story that couldn't happen in a cute little sharded theme park MMO ;). A story that couldn't happen without the ability to build long a term reputation with a large population or without the mutual freedom of the world's inhabitants to forge their own destiny.

The possibility of something like this happening is one of the things we all love about EVE.

Will we make a video out of it like the 'EVE is real' video? I can't say...but it's a cool idea Blink
Or will someone from the community make a ´Day of Darkness II' type video out of this? Smile

That's a pretty cool idea too.

p.s. I'll totally get a veldspar tattoo if I get to play the role of Chribba in a video.


I'll make the video, but i'd need the jessica tool for it, it's just impossible to get 100 or more dudes on singularity to help.....
is there any possibility to get my hands on that tool, like a trial version which can be used for 60 days or something.

would be just awesome, and you guys get free propaganda :-D


If we had a stable distribution-friendly platform that we could realistically distribute to players, I'd absolutely love that personally. However, that's not the case it seems and I'm told that Jessica is somewhat of a fickle wench who doesn't like to leave the house, and needs plenty of in-house support and pampering for her to do what's expected of her.

Hopefully some day though!

It is quite sad that a stable distribution version of "Jessica" will probably never be released. It would be a excellent marketing tool for CCP to allow players to create better videos. Add to the fact that it wouldn't really cost CCP anything(other then making it stable) and be free marketing.

I'd still prefer Tom Hanks.

Would be quite interesting to see something like this of course, and it would be a major honor from my view, all thanks to this awesome community we have!

a "Day of Darkness II" like thing wopuldn't be nice,
i'd love to see some fleet action where you can hear the hectic fleet comms, so you can feel with the people.
some directed engagements from the bombers, and so on.

just got a question, are we allowed to export the eve models and skinns to use em in other programms like 3dsmax, so i could use em in a SDK tool?

I feel that this is one of those situations where I can actually say, "I was there."

Shooting at SBU's does not make for a good action video.

About as interesting as a mining video.

You only watch movies for the car chases don't you?

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

This needs to be done. For my sins I work as an operations manager for a marketing company and what this one video could do for CCP's reputation is enormous.

Of course this is the internet and having thought about it saying 'I work in marketing' means **** all. I could actually be a brickie for all you know but my points stands and you know why? Not only does it make marketing sense... it makes ACTUAL sense to! :D

Pretty sure it is allowed, unless I misunderstood your question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evD5xqIHLmI
